I think its a fair adaptation of the Joseph Conrad book. It was also the first big movie that HBO had the rights to ergo it was on a couple times a day. Me and my prurient junior high bros had the dialogue pretty much memorized. We mostly spoke in "Apocalypse Now" lines for an entire summer.
The playboy bunny scenes made me feel very tingly.
Colonel Killgore was our hero because he surfed (we live in a coastal town).
For these reasons alone, Apocolypse Now will always hold a special place in my heart no matter which cut is being viewed...
